After years of living under the oppression of Twilight's reign, The 2013 MTV Movie Awards finally had a mostly vampire-free ceremony yesterday, with the bulk of the awards going to The Avengers and Silver Linings Playbook. Granted, they gave one award to Twilight, but it was a fake award that doesn't count for anything, sort of like the Twilight movies themselves. Movie of the Year: The Avengers Best Female Performance: Jennifer MORE
You know it's a slow news morning when we're talking about the Kids' Choice Awards 2013, but honestly, it's either this or pretending that Paris Hilton is still relevant. Anyway, the awards were last night, people got tiny orange blimps, and more than a few celebrities got slimed. (For the record: Remember when Nickelodeon actually slimed people on the regular? Oh, the good ol' days of Raiders of the Hidden Temple, Nickelodeon Guts, and You Can't MORE

Look, usually after an awards show, we do one quick post to wrap things up and leave it at that. But the Grammys were ... dude, that was a whole lot of crazy and diva realness crammed into one show, so we're actually going to have to spread this one out over a couple of posts for the day. Hell, we can't even put the full list of winners here, because there are like fifty bajillion winners, so I'm just going to condense it to the people who won MORE
Actually, you know what? I'm just going to call them the Screen Actors Guild Awards, because sag just makes me think of a sad little Droopy Dog character, dragging his sagging jowels around the floor when he walks ... I'm sorry, but Screen Actors Guild just sounds better than SAG. SAAAAAAAAG. See what I mean? Anyway, their awards show was last night. The winners list, via USA Today ... FILM Cast in a motion picture WINNER: Argo The Best MORE
True story: I actually had to drag my boyfriend kicking and screaming to watch the Golden Globes, baiting him with the promise, "but Tina Fey and Amy Poehler will be hosting! They'll be funny!" Thankfully, I wasn't disappointed: the Golden Globes were good, wholesome, drunken fun. Glenn Close acted drunk and awesome, all the bits featuring Amy and Tina (including their recurring joke about a fake movie called Dog President) killed, and Anne MORE
In all the hoopla of the Acacemy Award nominations, the snubs, the surprises, and the shameless guessing I may or may not have made regarding who would win (PUT ALL OF MY LIFE SAVINGS ON SILVER LININGS PLAYBOOK) we almost forgot that the People's Choice Awards were last night. Yes, the People's Choice Awards; they're basically the Oscars' not-as-hot sister who makes up for it by putting out at the drop of a hat. Anyway, here's the full list of MORE
Oh for the love of ... how many musical awards shows do we need in one year? How much longer until we just start giving them away in cereal boxes? "Oh boy, I wonder what I got? ... A Grammy? Awwww, weak. Oh well, at least I still have my Cinnamon Toast Crunch!" (Not a product placement, I just like them.) Anyway, back to the American Music Awards. They were last night, and Justin Bieber was the big winner because apparently, the people in charge MORE
There's a reason why teenagers aren't allowed to vote in The Academy Awards: they aren't yet old enough to fully understand how and why their taste in everything sucks. Which is why we gave them The 2012 Teen Choice Awards, a one night affair wherein man's inhumanity to man reigns supreme and the most shoddily produced cash-grabs are rewarded for appealing to the absolute lowest common denominator. The full list of "winners" via MORE
In case you missed The 84th Annual Academy Awards aka The Oscars, here are the winners! I was thrilled to see The Artist win Best Picture along with Jean Dujardin nabbing Best Actor and Michel Hazanavicius winning Best Director! I've been pulling for that film ever since I saw it, I'm so glad it got the recognition it truly deserved. If you haven't seen it yet, you must, especially if you're a movie lover! BEST PICTURE The Artist War MORE
I'm not even going to try and pretend like the Grammys are worth more than a frozen dog turd because let's face it, no one takes the awards seriously anyway, so I'll just cut to the chase: Adele won everything, Bon Iver picked up a couple well-deserved awards, Amy Winehouse picked one up posthumously, and Chris Brown beat a bunch of people to win an award. Emphasis on the beat because hey, remember how Chris nearly beat a woman to death and left MORE
First off, sorry for the down time last week. Someone stole my laptop while I was in Los Angeles so posting was kind of ... impossible. Anyway, thanks to MK for carrying the extra weight while I was away! The 69th (tee-hee!) Annual Golden Globes were last night, and once again the industry got together to celebrate the Oscars' test run. On the plus side, this show really makes it easy to pick out your Oscar pool if you're into that sort of MORE
